The development plan is not ready yet, but the idea is that
we'll go through a series of iterative develop, test, bug
fix, test again, release, revisit objectives, cycles and
incrementally release stable versions of the software. The
primary objective of the work taking us from 2.0 through 2.1,
2.2, etc. up to 3.0 is to achieve Perl 5.6 regular expression
compatibility in version 3.0 for the org.apache.oro.text.regex
and org.apache.oro.text.perl packages. This is the driving
force because the Perl expressions are the library's most
popular feature. Other development will transpire, but the
focus will be on the Perl regular expression support.
